You made a f***ing remix of the My Neighbor Totoro theme? That is simply genius. You, sir, are a god. 'Nuff said.

Killer remix of a killer song. 'Nuff said.
I gave it a 9 because the intro wasn't too good. Everything else is a-okay!

And that's good.
I was so blown away by the intro that I had to keep listening. You've got quite a tribute here. I don't automatically just give a 10 to any song I like. I try to actually consider the score I give it, but you've earned a 10 from me. Very well done.
Love Castle Crashers, by the way. =)

I love love love LOVE deep atmospheric DnB, so you fed me some hard candy with Morphine.
I think you did an absolutely amazing job here. I don't know a lot about DnB, but your drum line and percussion sequences are so well executed (not to mention just the right volume), and the synth is very unique and cool. To make it even more interesting, the intense amount of reverb (that's GOOD) sates my ears like no other track on NG. It's on par with the music from the video game P.N. 03; really good stuff.
I'd love to hear more of this from you. Keep it up!

This song is actually just Super Mario Bros. Not Super Mario Bros. 3.
Pretty basic. You missed one note (should be at the end of 0:10), I'm sure of, you got another one wrong (at 0:15), I'm sure of, and the end of the song has a few too many notes, starting at 0:25 and ending at 0:26.

I really really really love the intro. Honestly, that's probably the best part! I wish you could have given the rest of the song the same feeling as the intro, but it changed quite a bit and feels too different.
In any case, you've got a great track that definitely has the potential to win the contest. Good luck!
Author's Response:
Thanks man. Sorry it had to be rushed... in the full version the intro will be like 2 mins long ;)

Not much I have to say (I'm tired). You implemented the vocals almost perfectly, in my opinion. Not a big fan of Kate Leising, but the point here is that it seems you know how to lay down vocals in a trance track.
Synth was top notch, percussion played pretty well, and it all flowed very nicely. Overall, this is a great track; not my favorite type of trance, but I can tell that there was a lot of effort put forth. Keep it up. =)

Thanks for the review man!
too bad it didn't make top tracks ever...i don't know. seems like NG is a bunch of douches for not putting this on there. look at that bottom song. terrible static crap. and he only had 5 dls, 13 votes. I had 52 votes, >20 dls, and 27 reviews with an average score of 9.6...ALL WITHIN 21 HOURS. Yeah. I"m not too happy, but I agree. I wish I could have gotten better quality voices, but it was there and easily accessable. I'm planning on making my own lyrics with a singer that I actually have them record. That's the kinda stuff that's not gonna be on NG. It'll just ignored like this song.

I absolutely love this track from Donkey Kong Country 2. It's definitely one of my favorites, and you did a good job remixing it. I do have a few pointers to make, however.
From the way it sounds, you tried to somewhat replicate the synths that were used in the original version, but the problem is that most of your synths were not well-defined, in my opinion. What I am meaning to say is that they aren't clearly heard, and their ends can get just a bit washed up in the background.
The entire set of percussions came in all too abruptly. The bassline changed quickly as well, and it seemed to mess up the flow of the track. I loved the bassline before and the bassline after, but this transition was extremely short when it could have been slightly longer, smoother, and better! I also think the percussion could have been stepped up just a little bit.
Other than these points I've made, I think you have an amazing remix. I'm definitely going to have to send out a remix of this track at some point in time.
